Arum looking to build towards JuanMa Lopez-Yuriorkis Gamboa?

[C-Lo]

My thoughts are that Arum shouldn't try to rob us by putting this match on PPV it deserves to headline a Boxing After Dark or Showtime Boxing card not a PPV one. All PPV is gonna do is lose them money. Both of them aren't huge enough to give a PPV to. But it is a match I'd love to see

It's definitely not a PPV fight. Quality, maybe, but unless you're a real boxing fan, you won't be buying this fight.

I guess we will see, I think people are way underestimating Gamboa here, sure JML should be favored, but Gamboa is way faster, has power of his own, and if he fights on the outside I don't see JML landing very effectively on him, he's just too much faster. By that I don't just mean physical speed, his timing is faster to.

Far lesser skilled fighters have successfully timed Gamboa, to the tune of many knockdowns.

I agree Sheep.. When Juanma lands on Gamboas chin its going to be lights out, already stated that Gamboa has been timed and dropped by lesser men.

I like Spicoli think this fight should be way down the road. Gamboa has alot of the goods, but is unproven against elite competion. I'd like him to take on some fringe guys like a Juarez, Solis or Cruz and see how he deals with some live vets.

If Lopez blows him out it could be fracturing to Gamboa

I'm with Sheep and JT. Gamboa is a little cocky in the ring and he leaves himself open. Do that with Lopez and it's game over. Yes, Gamboa has been knocked down and come back to win. But will Lopez let him come back? If he drops Gamboa he's not letting up.

I personally don't like Gamboa and hope he gets rocked but I do think he's freakishly fast and has good power too.

Let the two develop more, then match them up. I think in a couple of years this will have much more significance.
